Lips were flapping at a film festival in Palm Springs over the weekend. Apparently in “Revenge of the Sith”…. uh… read it here.
And yes, big spoiler!
Vanity Fair scans
Can’t wait? Jedinet has high resolution scans of Vanity Fair‘s Revenge of the Sith cover story.
And TFN found a news item that claims the full trailer will be on March’s Clone Wars DVD. And the presale numbers spike.
We Break for Nobody
SFX magazine conducted a poll to find the greatest ever special effect, and Star Wars comes out on top for the opening scene of A New Hope.
Only four of the effects in the top ten were created digitally. Other pre-CGI honorees include the climax of 1933’s King Kong (#2), the skeleton warriors from 1963’s Jason and the Argonauts (#4) and the chest buster from 1979’s Alien (#9.)
First fan queues for ROTS
Hooray! I’m not the biggest dork on the planet!
Jeff Tweiten is already lining up in Seattle. But as CBBC notes…
… there could be one major problem for the super-keen fan. As yet, he’s not actually sure if the cinema in Seattle he is queuing outside will even be showing the film!
Uh… no comment.
The latest on ROTS…
The official site has an interview with Dialogue Coach Chris Neil about his work on Episode 3. He shares some insight on the ROTS actors and their jobs.
In other news, TFN found this preview of RoseArt’s ROTS school supplies… Including a lightsaber glue stick and a light-up Darth Vader glue bottle.
And of course, it wouldn’t be news if we didn’t get more preview images. Yes ladies, there’s Obi-wan.
Universes collide on cover of “Vanity Fair”
The cover of the next “Vanity Fair” will feature Uncle George amidst the casts of all six movies. It hits newsstands on January 11th.
You can see the whole picture here (with some character spoilers). Um… wow!
There’s an article here with spoilers ahoy!
Thanks to Ewan News and ComingSoon for the great information.
ETA: Starwars.com has posted another look at the cover image, and an interview with Vanity Fair contributing editor Jim Windolf about talking to Lucas. Possible spoilers!
Adventures in Google
Googling for ‘star wars blog‘ gives you a whole lot of stuff about that poor kid whose video got leaked. However, I did find SciFi News Blog and some interesting thoughts on the importance of the soundtrack.
Speaking of random webstuffs, looks like there’s a new issue of Saga Journal.
ROTS Spoiler pics!
AICN has a link to some very interesting and apparently not officially released photos from “Revenge of the Sith.”
Needless to say… SPOILERS!
Spoilers and soundtracks
Coming Soon has posted their Star Wars roundup for the week and it’s full of possible spoilers, including some brand new pictures. Read it at your own risk! Most of the spoilers originate at a site called Millennium Falcon, which might be worth keeping an eye on.
In other recent news, TFN claims that the soundtrack for ROTS will be out on May 3rd, 2005, and will include a bonus DVD.
“I’m Captain Jack Sparrow!”
Almost as pretty as the original and cheaper to keep in rum. Three cheers for vinyl men! And thanks to Denise for the head’s up.
“Welcome to the Caribbean, Luv.”
